#Sheffield Uber drivers can be the absolute best ❤️

These anti mask sentiment articles are just ableist and racist. I'm disabled, got worse after I got COVID again in 2024, I mask and barely go out. I'm accidentally a model minority (disabled, queer, business owner, homeowner). Just say outright you want us dead. FFS it's so tedious.

Yeah I paid by credit card for this reason. The last letter we sent gives 7 days to respond and then I'll call my credit card provider. They've been very helpful in the past.

Uggghh. I'm Sheffield so just outside of it, thankfully we don't get insulted often. We are dealing with a fault washer-dryer the company won't take back though. Not always finding companies to be super professional.

Not that I think they cared about losing specifically my business or anything but like... people have jobs? If I say don't call (I'll call) then don't call. Anyway went with a much nicer and less desperate company.

I had this when I enquired about doors. I specifically put in my enquiry not to call (I'm always in client meetings). One company emailed and called four times in a day, then five times the next day. I blocked their number and emailed telling them to remove my information from their systems.

I really dislike emails that say 'I will do xyz this week' because I know you absolutely won't (I try not to send these), but also not replying at all to professional stuff is pants guys. We're all working in similar conditions let's just be humans.

This might be telling you to suck eggs, but if you don't already, play with them every day for like 5-10mins if you can, around the same time in the day. It makes a huge difference to their happiness and all their quirks. If they don't play yet, try different toys out.

I've just looked, it doesn't look like it has a reader function? I'm not interested in writing a newsletter, I want a place to find a variety of stuff to read.

Where did you get those? We are a pretentious coffee bean house. 🥰

Thank you so much for your time replying, it's so interesting!

I have a cold so am not wording good. I'm in my late 30s so I've grown up with these images of white marble classics alongside reference books of pattern and ornamentation from the same era but for some reason the two don't seem to come together.

Thanks for replying! Purity was the word I had lost. I don't know if you know this, but when did people start collating ancient patterns? Was it the same type of people who thought sculptures were white marble? I find it hard to reconcile white marble, etc alongside the knowledge of ornamentation.

@duolingoverde.bsky.social was discriminating against my blocked nose tonight 😡 I said OUI NOUS AVONS UN CHAT OK.

My wxfe left the conversation. Not everyone appreciates spoon content apparently. 💔

Now in a full conversation with a friend about spoon shapes. They're sending me videos. They have a lot of spoons. Good clean autistic fun!

Acceptable bowl food utensil combinations:
Solo spoon (preferably a ceramic white flat soup spoon)
Chopsticks and said spoon
Chopsticks
Solo fork
Fork and spoon

My favourite is chopsticks and a spoon so I can build the best bites.

I don't know if you've seen similar with the terracotta warriors, they are colourful when dug up but degrade very fast. When I visited like 20 years ago scientists were working out how to stop them degrading. Made up ancient minimalist aesthetic is a weird one!
